Andrew Villone Wants Travelers to Savor the Experience

Andrew Villone toured Eastern Europe as a backpacker in the late 1990s. He returned in the early 2000s to launch Savor the Experience, a tour company specializing in the Balkans with additional offerings as far away as Georgia. Andrew shares what drew him to his new home in Slovenia, what he finds special about Eastern Europe, and what we can all learn from lesser-traveled corner of the globe.
